INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL GUIDELINES : Ensure that the valves to be used are appropriate for the conditions of the installation (type of fluid,pressure and temperature). Be sure to have enough valves to be able to isolate the sections of piping as well as the appropriate equipment for maintenance and repair. Ensure that the valves to be installed are of correct strenght to be able to support the capacity of their usage. Installation of all circuits should ensure that their function can be automatically tested on a regular basis (at least two times a year). INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS : Before installing the valves,clean and remove any objects from the pipes (in particular bits of sealing and metal) which could obstruct and block the valves. Ensure that both connecting pipes either side of the valve (upstream and downstream) are aligned (if they re not,the valves may not work correctly). Make sure that the two sections of the pipe (upstream and downstream) match,the valve unit will not absorb any gaps.any distortions in the pipes may affect the thightness of the connection,the working of the valve and can even cause a rupture.to be sure,place the kit in position to ensure the assembling will work. If sections of piping do not have their final support in place,they should be temporarily fixed.this is to avoid unnecessary strain on the valve. Tighten the bolts in cross. It s recommended to operate the valve ( open and close ) 1 to 2 times per year Page 19 sur 19
